Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.

Let's be honest. He'll just declare a "national emergency" and suspend elections, no third term necessary. He's trying it out in DC and LA now. It's all in the dictator playbook.
mortality is the only thing that will get him out of office at this point. sadly he has the best medical care this country has to offer. thankfully he has the best medical care this country has to offer.
He also eats like shit, doesn't exercise at all, has a stimulant addiction, and his age is catching up with him.
Even if by some miracle he makes it to the end of this term, he won't last for a 3rd term.
After that the real fun starts when there's a struggle to fill the power vacuum, that could cause an actual civil war.
Time for an American Year of Four Emperors
He has ACCESS to the best medical care, but he'll demand a MAGA doctor, which means he'll probably get some mental defective like Ben Carson, or some quack RFK Mengele will recommend.
I am hoping he ends up like President Garfield.
Does he really have the best care? Be honest if you were a doc and Trump gets rolled in are you going to be particularly good to him, sure you may follow the Hippocratic oath but there's nothing saying you can't go full WW1 combat medic and make the healing as physically painful as possible.
I’m sure plenty of doctors are republicans.
Yeah but most Republicans don't have to be up close to his body, let alone touch it. Can you imagine how greasy his skin is?
Just follow the guidelines of the RFK HHS and that could be enough.
Perfect. He'll be dead in 6-12 months.
For real though, RFK's appointment was to intentionally kill and harm as many poors as possible. Christian fascists are among the most psychopathic psychology that can exist.

He is not leaving power willingly.
We shall indulge him.
True, except the guy can’t read so he’s not getting it from the playbook. He’s just being a standard narcissist and doing things that a narcissist would do.
He's doing whatever Putin told him to
Which is odd. I don't understand how he would suspend elections, as the states run those. So, essentially if some states refuse to have an election, and the rest do, then he loses.
Obviously he wouldn't accept that, but the voting states will likely form the Union again, Ally with the rest of the world and crush the every loving shit of the Christian Nationalist movement once and for all.
Maybe we let them keep Florida though. Just the cock part, and have a massive DMZ across it.
I like this scenario, except for the Florida part. Florida is too beautiful to leave it to the likes of MAGA Nazis. They can all go live on Epstein Island, and leave Florida for the good Americans.
I'm trying to think of the worst place they could live. How about some remote part of North Dakota that doesn't have any minerals? Or some very low areas that no one else wants to live in, since they don't think climate change is real?
The Union can form an enclave around Gatorland.
"You know what y'all need? Ya'll need Gatorland!"
Take the entire Orlando area, they'd be thrilled to get their crosswalk back and some sane leadership.
Also I love how a bunch of internet randos know about my favorite field trip spot when I was a kid.
Nah, the rest of the Orlando area has been dealing with a pretty nasty mouse infestation since 1971. Only Gatorland is worth keeping.
The cock part is the more progressive part.
Really? Damn. Makes sense why they put alligator aushwitz where they did then.
I was thinking of places like Tampa, Orlando, down to Miami. But I guess there is plenty of red down there too. Yes that’s where alligator Alcatraz is located.
Was going by the old expression in Florida, the further north you go, the more south you get.
